We can all agree that what we want is a pure and safe pool for our friends and family. The fact that chemicals become a necessity to balance the pool, would it be much better to limit the use of it? Let’s face it, it will be if you have the right device to help you clean your pool. There is a lot of robotic cleaners now a day in the market, and one of which is the DOLPHIN PRIMALX3.

The DOLPHIN PRIMALX3 is a robotic pool cleaner by Maytronics. It uses all of the Maytronics core technology. It’s an excellent device, a great value and easy to live with automatic pool cleaner.

The Dolphin PrimalX3 is one of the few robotic cleaners designed for long-term immersion in the pool. Awesome, right?

  • Filter type – Cartridge
  • Can climb walls
  • Filter access is at the bottom
  • Cycle time is 3 hours
  • Can vacuum and pump up to 4,233 gallons per hour.

The Dolphin PrimalX3 Stands Out For Its:

CLEANING ABILITY

The cleaner has a pre-scanning system that enables the device to scan your pool’s shape and dimension and set the most efficient cleaning passage guaranteeing that every foot of your pool is touched. This process saves the cleaner a lot of time to clean your pool.

As the unit is doing its work, the two filters work too, this way no debris can be scattered around. The filters remove debris from the water, hence, backwashing will no longer be a requirement.

The cleaner comes with two filters: fine filters for larger debris such as leaves and fine filter for ultra-fine dirt such as sands.

TANGLE FREE CABLE

Another important feature that all pool owners want is a tangle-free cable. This cleaner comes with a 60’ feet in length anti-kink cable. This guarantees your cleaner to perform up to its best ability because it can freely move around the pool without any impediment.

WALL CLEANING ABILITY

Many robotic cleaners fail when it comes to cleaning the walls but with the Dolphin PrimalX3, cleaning the wall is a walk in the park. This cleaner comes with a high suction power that allows the unit to easily stick to walls and remove dirt effortlessly.

To help remove the dirt, the cleaner comes with 2 brushes: one at the front and one at the rear.

WEEKLY TIMER

The cleaner comes with a weekly timer which saves time and makes pool cleaning easier. This permits the owner to set the cleaner automatically, it can be every day, every other day or at a 3-day interval, whichever is preferable. In every session, the cleaner automatically runs for 2 and a half hours.

EASY TO USE

Simply a plug and play device. No installation is required in the pool and very much easy to use. just plug the unit and let it play around your pool.

  • Because the inlets are relatively small, larger debris such as leaves can be left behind.
  • No full filter indicator
  • Not good for cleaning the stairs

FINAL THOUGHTS

We agree with my introduction and I’m pretty sure we can agree as well that owning a robotic cleaner seems like now a necessity if you have swimming pool. Although others may have it as a choice, I believe in time, they’ll be needing one.

It’s never a bad idea to own a robotic cleaner, especially when it helps you big time. The only problem is how much you are willing to spend and what features you are expecting for a robotic cleaner. I will agree and that this Dolphin PrimalX3 does not come with all the features you want and it’s a bit far behind from its competitors. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great robotic cleaner, it can be operated easily. There are still things that needed to be improved in this robotic cleaner. Otherwise, overall, the cleaner does a very good job!
